battery tips
Battery life depends on the network, signal
strength, temperature, features, and
accessories you use.
• Always use Motorola
Original batteries and
chargers. The warranty does
not cover damage caused by
non-Motorola batteries and/or chargers.
• New batteries or batteries stored for a
long time may take more time to
charge.
• When charging your battery, keep it
near room temperature.
When storing your battery, keep it
uncharged in a cool, dark, dry place.
• Never expose batteries to
temperatures below -10°C (14°F) or
above 45°C (113°F). Always take your
phone with you when you leave your
vehicle.
• It is normal for batteries to gradually
wear down and require longer charging
times. If you notice a change in your
battery life, it is probably time to
purchase a new battery.
Contact your local recycling center for
proper battery disposal.
Warning: Never dispose of batteries in a fire
because they may explode.
Before using your phone, read the battery
safety information in the “Safety and General
Information” section included in this guide.
